Yahoo CIO Mike Kail will present a session on DevOps at the 3rd International DevOps Summit, November 4-6, 2014, at the Santa Clara Convention Center in Santa Clara, CA.
Mike brings more than 23 years of IT operations experience with a focus on highly scalable architectures to Yahoo. Prior to Yahoo, he served as VP of IT Operations at Netflix. The Netflix culture highlighted the transformation we see within forward-thinking IT organizations today and its use of public cloud and 'No Ops' is well known in the industry. Mike Kail worked to develop this culture within Netflix's own IT organization, where he focused not only on the technology, but also on hiring and training the right talent. In order to achieve the right mix of technology innovation and human talent, he concentrated on identifying the right mind set for a new way of IT (DevOps) and how to transition from IT Ops to DevOps

The buzz continues for cloud, data analytics and the Internet of Things (IoT) and their collective impact across all industries. But a new conversation is emerging - how do companies use industry disruption and technology enablers to lead in markets undergoing change, uncertainty and ambiguity?

Too often with compelling new technologies market participants become overly enamored with that attractiveness of the technology and neglect underlying business drivers. This tendency, what some call the "newest shiny object syndrome," is understandable given that virtually all of us are heavily engaged in technology. But it is also mistaken. Without concrete business cases driving its deployment, IoT, like many other technologies before it, will fade into obscurity.

As a CIO, are your direct reports IT managers or are they IT leaders? The hard truth is that many IT managers have risen through the ranks based on their technical skills, not their leadership ability. Many are unable to effectively engage and inspire, creating forward momentum in the direction of desired change. Renowned for its approach to leadership and emphasis on their people, organizations increasingly look to our military for insight into these challenges.

Cloud computing delivers on-demand resources that provide businesses with flexibility and cost-savings. The challenge in moving workloads to the cloud has been the cost and complexity of ensuring the initial and ongoing security and regulatory (PCI, HIPAA, FFIEC) compliance across private and public clouds. Manual security compliance is slow, prone to human error, and represents over 50% of the cost of managing cloud applications. Determining how to automate cloud security compliance is critical...

You have your devices and your data, but what about the rest of your Internet of Things story? Two popular classes of technologies that nicely handle the Big Data analytics for Internet of Things are Apache Hadoop and NoSQL. Hadoop is designed for parallelizing analytical work across many servers and is ideal for the massive data volumes you create with IoT devices. NoSQL databases such as Apache HBase are ideal for storing and retrieving IoT data as "time series data."

The IoT market is on track to hit $7.1 trillion in 2020. The reality is that only a handful of companies are ready for this massive demand. There are a lot of barriers, paint points, traps, and hidden roadblocks. How can we deal with these issues and challenges? The paradigm has changed. Old-style ad-hoc trial-and-error ways will certainly lead you to the dead end. What is mandatory is an overarching and adaptive approach to effectively handle the rapid changes and exponential growth.

"Know I know the true story of Dracula"
Only saw the movie? Yhen you don't know the real story. A great read err listen!
Fuzzy Drummer
"Fantastic cast - won't disappoint!"
Great cast. Captivating story that is far better than all of the movies based on it. Filled with suspense and great writing.
I've tried several times over the years to read Dracula, and this full cast recording has achieved that for me. Brilliantly done.
a great book always ends too soon
"not EVERY line should be said with dramatic flair"
Not EVERY line should be sai with dramatic flair. I found myself skipping large sections just to finish.
"Performance Perfection"
Yes, the readers of this audiobook spoke their roles incredibly well. The only fault I found was slight difficulty following the book itself as new characters appeared regularly.
The accents. I probably would have been able to imagine them to have such interesting dialects.
I loved Jonathan's accent, however, the tone in which Lucky was played spoke loudly of her character in the book. Her voice was very soft and delicate which perfectly showed the character.
This was my first audiobook and I greatly enjoyed the experience. I love being able to listen to a book in the car! I've tried reading and driving before and it is much harder >_<
This is the only way to get through all the books I want to enjoy...and still I'm behind!
"Not a Bone Chiller"
Sorry, but this classic while read beautifully, made me laugh as presented. Did it seem scarey and horrible and bone chilling...not a bit. While wonderfully presented, it was the stuff of soap operas.
I am glad I listened to the book, and I might give the print version a try.
"Very good classic book."
very enjoyable listen.
I was wishing that this would have been assigned reading when I was in school. I never knew I would have enjoyed Dracula.
Really good book. I am just know starting to enjoy classic books, this is now one of my new favorites.
"Great listen, great book!"
Cast is fantastic and the story is timeless. I liked that the performers were consistent with the voice and intimations of each other.

after reading the reviews i expected a 'your lips but better' color. not so for me. this was more of a dark liner for when i'd like to do plums and darker lippies. long lasting tho and great quality...but definately not a natural color if that's what your hoping for. but if your looking for a liner to pair w/ darker lippies..this would be perfect.

Like the reviewer below, I found this way too dark. On my light olive skin, this liner turned out to be a dark plum. There was also a shimmer to it that I didn't like.
Fomula wise, I didn't find it too dry. I prefer the #712 liner to this one, which looks much more your-lips-but-better on me.

This is supposed to be a universally flattering shade - like an inexpensive version of MAC Spice lipliner. I have a mediim olive skin tone and I still feel like this looks too dark on me. I wish it were just a tad lighter, maybe a bit less of the rose hue and a little more neutral. This liner cannot compare with MAC Spice or any other department store liner, but for the price, I always have one lying around. It actually isn't too bad when used like a lipstain - use to fill in the entire lip, blot, then dilute with plenty of lipbalm. I do that when I want my lipcolor to last most of the day without having to reapply.

i love lipliners i use them everyday. i heard rave reviews on here so i went and bought it. it was soo bad... lipliner with so much metallic shimmer? looked cheap and plus it was waayyy to dark.. people on here said it was like a natural color.. not even close. dont waste ur money

I read this lipliner was similar to MAC spice, so i wanted to check it out. i had used about five years ago and liked the dramatic effect it had on my medium brown skin tone. Now that i'm using it again, i think i'd rather go buy MAC lipliner. The color is perfect, not too red or pink or plum, but the texture is drying and unmanageable. what do you expect for a buck, though.

After reading all the great reviews I hunted this one down at Walgreens. For me it's just an okay lip liner. It's darker than I hoped it would be, and it's not very natural looking on me, it makes me look a little matronly. I suspect that this color does go with quite a few things, but since almost all of my lip colors are lighter, I just don't wear it very often. Sometimes I layer it under light glosses to brighten it up a little but once this very long pencil runs out I probably won't buy it again.

Age: 19-24
Skin: Combination, Fair-Medium, Warm

I had to see what the hype was about so I hunted this down at my local Walgreens. To me it's just another rosy-burgundy liner... I don't wear many deep colored lipsticks or glosses so this liner will be of virtually no use to me. At 99 cents it's super cheap though.

Oh, I love this lipliner! I got it for free when I bought an eyeshadow trio. I love that fact that it lasts longer than other lipliners and it's also super long, so one of these should last for a very, very long time. The color in't really MLBB, it's a bit darker, but it goes so well with many lip products. I will repurchase this one for sure!

Turkey and Tunisia Getting a Luxury Hotel Makeover
September 13, 2012
By: Oksana Balytsky
While we're not sure of what next week will hold let alone next year, these hotel chains are looking much farther into the future and planning their next big hotel openings for 2013, 2014, 2015, and beyond! Assuming the world doesn't end come December, we'll certainly keep up with the developments and look forward to even more luxury hotel options in cities around the world.
After the success of its property in Dresden, Swisshotels is planning to open two new hotels in Bodrum, Turkey, one on the beach and the other in the city. The beach resort will offer 66 guest rooms along with villas and residences, and the 56-room city resort will be in the hills and feature stunning views of the city. Both hotels are expected to open in 2013 and 2014.
Ritz Carlton is opening a 129-suite resort in Tunis, Tunisia in 2014, so if you never had a reason to visit Africa, you do now. We're imagining taking a stroll along the resort beach and exploring the ancient ruins in Carthage.
If your plans have you traveling a bit sooner, be sure to explore the luxury hotels we have located all over the world, and check in with us often to read about the progress of these up and coming hotels!

Condé Nast Traveler Hot List 2012: Amanruya
May 14, 2012
By: Christopher Roney
Conde Nast Traveler, purveyor of fine hotel reviews and travel advice, has just released its 2012 edition of the Hot List, a list of hotels that are setting the hotel world aflame with fresh designs and new concepts, or maybe just a solid new look at classic luxury. 41 reporters embedded themselves anonymously in hotels across the globe to review their targets. What results is a list of 121 hotels around the world that are so on fire they should be put on your watch list, just in case they end up burning down.
Aman Resorts are world-renowned for their ability to capture a special kind of serenity and bring it to all different parts of the world. Amanruya, on the Bodrum peninsula, is no exception, and its 36 seaside cottages are precisely the kind of escape that guests coming to Turkey hope for. Not only do the waters of the Mediterranean stretch out in front of the hotel, the resort is just a short drive from nearby Göltürkbükü, a hopping town for adventurous types to explore an active nightlife. While you're there, be sure to visit the excavation of Ephesus, where you can find one of the seven wonders of the world, the Temple of Artemis. The flat-roofed cottages of Amanruya are the perfect place to stay for a weekend in one of the world's most historic regions.

The aim of this little book is to tell in a simple and concise form the story of the founding and development of the United States. The study of the history of one's own country is a serious matter, and should be entered upon by the text-book writer, by the teacher, and by the pupil in a serious spirit, even to a greater extent than the study of language or of arithmetic. No effort has been made, therefore, to make out of this text-book a story book. It is a text-book pure and simple, and should be used as a text-book, to be studied diligently by the pupil and expounded carefully by the teacher.
See it as donating a moment of your social media time, every little thing helps us improve and stay online.

When is the biggest flipping weight on the market not quite big enough?
West Palm Beach, FL - Reins Fishing announced today that it is partnering with Bassmaster Elite Series anglers Bill Lowen, Ott Defoe and Cliff Crochet to promote its line of tungsten products. Reins is Japan's top tungsten supplier.
Elite Angler Marty Stone explains that tungsten allows him to feel more bites whether he's flipping or dragging a Carolina rig in 30 feet of water. Because tungsten is harder than lead, it translates bottom composition and structure and helps you to understand what's going on down there.
Despite the drop shot's widespread popularity, it seems only a few anglers have seen the magic it can wield in ridiculously deep water.

Leave aside the question of whether one agrees with him. In essence, Levi is demanding a certain level of moral restraint in Israel's struggle with her opponents. One could disagree with him: feel that the bar should be set lower, or set higher. But that's not what the bulk of the posts contain: instead, they are ferocious denunciations of Levy as a 'traitor,' a 'self-hating Jew,' etc. Obviously, the very concept that Israel should be subject to any moral limitations at all is intolerable to some people.

Ocean's Eleven
What's the starriest movie ever made? Murder on the Orient Express? Ocean's Eleven? Hollywood pay cheques could never allow such a stellar cast as in Bollywood's 2007 Om Shanti Om
From Ocean's Eleven to The Outsiders
Steven Soderbergh and George Clooney's efforts to bring a second Ocean's Eleven sequel to the big screen look to be on course with the news that all the main original members of the original's ensemble cast bar Julia Roberts have signed up.
Gerry Anderson's New Captain Scarlet | Joey | The British Academy Film Awards | Extreme Celebrity Detox | The Apprentice | Ocean's Eleven | American Splendor | Broadway - The American Musical | Down With Love
Ocean's Eleven | The Thomas Crown Affair | The Banger Sisters | 8 Women | Felicia's Journey
Peter Bradshaw: A ridiculously enjoyable caper directed with brio by Steven Soderbergh, who brings off the combination of action and tongue-in-cheek comedy which eluded the Frank Sinatra version
A cool update of Ocean's Eleven blows the Rat Pack version clean out of the water, disproving the wisdom that remakes are inferior to the original. Joe Queenan feels a wave of relief
It's a bad film made by a clapped-out director with a cast of egomaniac drunks. So why has anyone, let alone Steven Soderbergh, bothered to resurrect Ocean's Eleven? Shawn Levy explains why Frankie, Dino and the boys still exert a hold
Steven Soderbergh's Rat Pack reworking, Ocean's Eleven, took the top spot at the US box office this weekend. With takings of around $39.3m (£27.5m), it has the biggest three-day December opening ever. The film put a significant distance between itself and the number two picture, Harry Potter, which made $14.8m (£10.3m) in its fourth week of release.
The original was almost unwatchable, but the remake is totally irresistible. John Patterson on Ocean's Eleven, this week's big US release
Plus: Elliott Gould latest star to join cast of Steven Soderbergh's Ocean's Eleven; Edward Burns and Christy Turlington to marry

David Koepp to Receive Writers Guild of America's Career Achievement Award
Writers Guild of America, East today announced that versatile screenwriter and director David Koepp will be the recipient of the Ian McClellan Hunter Award for Career Achievement. The award, established in 1992, honors a WGA member for his/her body of work as a writer in motion pictures or television, and will be presented during the 65th Annual Writers Guild Awards, at B.B. King Blues Club in New York City on Sunday, February 17, 2013.
"For the past 25 years, David Koepp has written an extraordinary variety of movies that have thrilled audiences around the world - whether the exploits of Indiana Jones, the terror of genetically engineered dinosaurs at Jurassic Park or the derring-do of the Mission: Impossible team. But more than those adventures, David has given us tales of character and emotion that capture and lift the human spirit. He is a consummate storyteller and for that reason the Writers Guild of America, East is thrilled to present him its Ian McClellan Hunter Award for Career Achievement," said Michael Winship, President, WGAE.
"I'm honored and very grateful to the WGAE. To be mentioned in the same breath with the other people who've received the Hunter award gives me something to live up to - it's a humbling and compelling reason to keep typing. Now begins the terrifying process of trying to think of a clever way to say thank you in front of a roomful of 500 writers," said Koepp.
During his more than two decades writing for film, Koepp continues to demonstrate a tremendous versatility, moving seamlessly from Hollywood blockbuster action films such as Spiderman, Jurassic Park and Mission: Impossible to iconic thrillers such as Carlito's Way and Panic Room.
Koepp's singular and boundless list of genre-spanning films include Angels & Demons, Death Becomes Her, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, The Paper, War of the Worlds and as a writer/director, the horror film Stir of Echoes, The Comedy Ghost Town, and the action film Premium Rush.
Fellow screenwriter Scott Frank, best known for Minority Report, Get Shorty, and Out of Sight, will present the award.
The Hunter Award was named in memory of longtime WGAE member Ian McClellan Hunter, whose more than 20 screen credits include Eye Witness and A Woman of Distinction. Harassed by the blacklist in the 1950s, Hunter went on to write several successful television series under a pseudonym and then reemerged as a writer on many television projects, including The Blue and The Gray.
Past recipients of the Hunter award include Robert Benton, Walter Bernstein, Marshall Brickman, Horton Foote, Nora Ephron, Frank Gilroy, Ring Lardner Jr., Jules Pfeiffer, John Sayles, and John Patrick Shanley.

The researchers are using an autonomous underwater vehicle to measure slices of water quality. The slender, battery-powered vehicle is about 3 feet long and is programmed to trace specific routes in collecting data such as oxygen and chlorophyll concentrations, pH, and turbidity. Strings of sensors extending to the lake bottom from buoys also are recording temperature readings every 15 minutes.
The near-shore region is defined by waters up to a depth of 15 meters, which extends several miles in Lake Michigan because of the lake's gradually downsloping seabed.
"It's an incredibly dynamic part of the lake," Troy said. "You have rapid influxes of cold water, which can negatively impact the larval fish. Any time the wind direction changes, that affects where you get cold-water masses. Almost all of the motion in the Great Lakes is governed by the speed and the direction of the wind."
Other researchers have shown that the strength and direction of lake winds have shifted in recent decades.
"The idea is that if we can correlate larval fish growth and survival with wind patterns right now, and these correlations hold in the future, then we can use climate models to tell us how the wind will likely change and then speculate how fish might be affected in the future," Troy said. "It's too early to say whether we'll see more or fewer upwelling events, but the frequency of them is likely to change, and that will have an important effect on larval fish."
The Great Lakes are the largest surface freshwater resource in the world, providing drinking water to millions of U.S. and Canadian citizens, harboring habitats for birds and fish, and generating millions of dollars in regional commerce from recreation, shipping, commercial fisheries and water-dependent industries.
The researchers analyze structures called oto

Even worse, say Gray and White (in their complaint for the community bank), Dodd-Frank "delegates effectively unbounded power to the CFPB, and couples that power with provisions insulating CFPB against meaningful checks" by the other branches of government. This nullifies the checks and balances of the system of separation of powers. Courts are too reluctant to restrict Congress' power to delegate quasi-legislative powers, but the CFPB is an especially gross violation of the Constitution's Article I, Section 1: "All legislative powers herein granted shall be vested" in Congress. By creating a CFPB that floats above the Constitution's tripartite design of government, Congress did not merely degrade itself, it injured all Americans.
Like the Independent Payment Advisory Board, Obamacare's health care rationing panel, the CFPB embodies progressivism's authoritarianism — removing much policymaking from elected representatives and entrusting it to unaccountable "experts" exercising an unfettered discretion incompatible with the rule of law. Similarly, when Obama allows states to waive work requirements that the 1996 welfare reform law explicitly made non-waivable, he evades the Constitution's provision conferring a conditional presidential veto power — ignoring the law becomes preferable to a veto Congress can override. And the waivers make a mockery of the Constitution enjoining the president to "take care that the laws be faithfully executed."
Philander Knox should be the Obama administration's patron saint. When Theodore Roosevelt asked Attorney General Knox to concoct a defense for American behavior in acquiring the Panama Canal Zone, Knox replied: "Oh, Mr. President, do not let so great an achievement suffer from any taint of legality."

- An ISBN is the 10 or 13 digit number, usually printed on the back of a book with a bar code, that serves as a unique identifier for the book.
- Searching by ISBN is the best way to search because it will get you the exact title and edition that you need.
- Many professors include the ISBN on their syllabi or in their course management system.
If you don't have the ISBN, try a title or author search.
Title search
- Enter all words in the title you are looking for. The search engine will try to find books that have all the words you entered in the title. Leave out words such as "a," "an," or "the."
- When including edition, use numeric values. For example, "1st edition" instead of "first edition."
Author search
- Enter all or part of the author name you are looking for.
- You do not need to enter a first name, but if there are a lot of books by authors with the same last name, it may help to narrow the results.
- You can enter the name in any order such as "John Smith" or "Smith John." Avoid using a comma since it has a special meaning in the search.
Keyword search
- You can search by keyword but this approach is not recommended as it will likely return a large set of results.
- If you want to search by keyword, try a combination of author and keyword. For example, "Warren Accounting" where "Warren" is the author and "Accounting" is the keyword.
To refine your results, use the filtering/sorting options
- Filter options include product type and discipline area. Sort options include alphabetical sort (ascending or descending) and copyright year (ascending or descending).

THE JOY OF CHILDREN'S LITERATURE, 2nd Edition, provides in-depth coverage of children's literature with integrated reading methods in a concise, accessible format. The compact length allows for more time during the course to read the numerous children's books highlighted in the text. Johnson emphasizes that reading, writing, discussing, and finding pleasure in children's books are essential to the ability to recognize and recommend literature, and ultimately, to the ability to share the joy of children's literature with children themselves. The text is divided into three main parts. Part I introduces foundational concepts necessary to the study of children's literature, including child development and the history and scope of children's literature. Part II, the primary focus of the text, analyzes a different literary genre in each chapter, providing a history of the genre, a consideration of its role in modern children's literature, key books in the genre, and discussion. Part III considers the usage of children's literature in the classroom, with practical advice for teaching.

Curatorial Liaison at Artsy
19 March 2014
"Tibet and India: Buddhist Traditions and Transformations," on view through June 8 at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, explores the Tibetan Buddhist tradition from two lenses: how contacts with North India in the 11th and 12th centuries led to a flourishing Buddhist Tradition in Tibet, and how the contemporary work of Tibetan Buddhist artists Gonkar Gyatso and Tenzing Rigdol is having an impact today. I recently toured the galleries with Kurt Behrendt, assistant curator and the show's organizer, to learn more about the exhibition.
Liz Luna: Can you start by talking about the premise for the exhibition, and what drew you to this topic? Continue reading

GMCR, Starbucks forge closer ties
Green Mountain Coffee Roasters will increase its single-serve K-Cup pack sales to Starbucks under a new five-year agreement, the companies announced.
Since GMCR and Starbucks entered into a partnership in 2011, Starbucks has shipped more than 850 million Starbucks coffee K-Cup packs.
With the new agreement, Starbucks will triple the amount of single-serve products offered for Keurig single cup brewers.
New brands will include Seattles Best Coffee, Torrefazione Italia coffee, Teavana Teas, and Starbucks Cocoa.
Financial terms of the agreement were not disclosed.
Starbucks new agreement with GMCR strengthens our leadership position in the premium single cup category, the segment of our industry that has grown nine times faster than the overall coffee category during the past year and a category that now accounts for more than 25 percent of total coffee sales in grocery, said Howard Schultz, Starbucks chairman, president and CEO. The new agreement also affords us the opportunity to expand our successful K-Cup and Vue pack portfolio of products and brands beyond North America and to market them on a truly global scale over time.
Brian Kelley, GMCRs president and CEO said the agreement expands single-serve opportunities beyond North America. We have been delighted with the performance of the Starbucks brand portfolio and are confident the Keurig system has significant, untapped potential to continue to change consumer behavior, Kelley said.
With expanded availability and distribution, sales of Starbucks coffee K-Cup packs increased more than 75 percent in March 2013 over the previous year.
Last week, GMCR reported fiscal second quarter earnings of 93 cents a share over the same period last year.
Revenues increased 14 percent to $1 billion over the prior year period. Net income for the quarter was $140.9 million compared to $101.7 million a year ago.MORE IN World/National Business

I have a method to get contacts from the address book and doing some stuff with them ("getContactInformation").
This process is a bit long (a few seconds) and after this process I show a new
ViewController. To make it friendly to the user I would like to use MBProgressHUD to show an activity indicator at the beginning of the process and hide it at the end.
Which is the best way to do it? I've test this:
MBProgressHUD *hud = [MBProgressHUD showHUDAddedTo:self.view animated:YES];
hud.labelText = @"Retrieving information...";
[self getContactInformation];
[MBProgressHUD hideHUDForView:self.view animated:YES];
[self presentViewController:newController animated:NO completion:nil];
But it doesn't work (It doesn't show the indicator). Anyone can help me?
Thank you in advance

Is Michael Jordan returning to the NBA? Probably not, but then again if you would have asked me if he could still dunk at the age of 50, I would have answered the same thing.
Is Michael Jordan returning to the NBA? Probably not, but then again if you would have asked me if he could still dunk at the age of 50, I would have answered the same thing.
Some basketball players would be happy to make 135 three pointers in a career, but Josh Ruggles does it in FIVE MINUTES!
I don't think anyone would have saw this coming but possible Mormon missionaries surprised some black guys in a street basketball game.
You might not know who Seventh Woods, Josh Jackson, Malik Monk, and Terrance Ferguson are right now, but you will.

"The Block" had always referenced Tayshaun Prince's amazing block of Reggie Miller until Lebron James amazed basketball fans everywhere in game 2 of the NBA Finals.
Burton's 'Froggy Fresh' had to drop his 'Krispy Kreme' moniker, but that didn't stop him and 'Money Maker Mike' from dropping their new NBA anthem 'Dunked On' just in time for the finals.

MMS: Foundations of Business
The world of business changes daily; you have 10 months to catch up. Beginning in July and running through early May, our Master of Management Studies: Foundations of Business (MMS: FOB) program is organized into 5 terms that are each 6 weeks long. You will take 3 courses in each term. We give you all the time you need to firmly grasp the information.
Summer Term
- Introduction to Financial Accounting
This is NOT your undergraduate accounting course. Even if you have a firm grasp of the core concepts, the cases you'll study illustrate how the real business world doesn't follow what you think you know from a textbook.
- Business Communication I
Strong communication skills are key to success in today's globally distributed business environment. The ability to communicate effectively, using the broad range of media available, is important across all aspects of work in a business setting. Whether it is an analyst conveying the results from an assigned project or a C-suite executive leading an organization, the ability to express oneself effectively is a key determinant of the impact and influence one is able to have within an organization. One typically thinks of communication skills as focusing solely on the written and spoken word. Given the central role financial analysis plays in a business setting, it is equally critical to have a strong skill set in expressing oneself through spreadsheet modeling and analytical tools. The ability to communicate effectively is also a primary determinant of one's ability to effectively develop, manage, and execute a job search strategy.
To provide exposure to this broad range of communication skills needed for success as a Master of Management Studies student, Business Communication I is divided into three tracks: one dealing with classic communication skills, including oral, written, and presentation; Excel, particularly as it relates to effective communication in the role of an analyst-level position; and Career Management Center activities tied to the effective conduct of a job search and associated activities.
Learn more about the Business Communication courses and how they'll help you in your job search.
- Quantitative Business Analysis
Quantitative Business Analysis provides an introduction to the analytical foundations of decision making. It deals with topics that are important when structuring decision problems, when analyzing them, and when deciding. The course begins with an introduction to probability, random variables and their properties. Two special random variables, the binomial and the normal, are analyzed since they are used extensively in practical applications. These topics serve as the basis for examining how to use sample data to make informed decisions about entire populations, both with point estimates and with confidence intervals. The course then provides an overview of regression analysis as a way of finding associations between a dependent variable and one or more independent variables, for improved understanding and/or for prediction purposes. The course concludes with an examination of the use of functions to describe business problems and with the use of optimization as a way to find best solutions.
Fall Term I
- Fundamentals of Business Economics
Scott G. Says:Be ahead of the game. Start paying attention to major economic indicators like the jobs reports, consumer prices, and what the Fed says.
- Introduction to Marketing Analysis
Whitney D. Says:Learn to be the customer advocate. Put yourself in their shoes. How do they make choices and is the thing that you're selling actually providing value to them?
- Foundations of Corporate Finance
The Career Management Center Says:This course is a must for those interested in working as a Financial Analyst.
Fall Term II
- Principles of Strategy
Regardless of where you end up in your career, what you learn in this class will evolve how you think about and address problems.
- Business Communication II
The focus of this course is to build on the career management and communication skills acquired in Business Communication I. On the classic communication track, the course objective is developing the oral, written, and presentation skills needed for success in a team-based work environment, with an emphasis on creating team-based presentations and reports. On the Career Management Center track, the emphasis is on refining your job search plan, with an emphasis on networking, the off campus job search, and perfecting the skills introduced in Business Communication I.
Learn more about the Business Communication courses and how they'll help you in your job search.
- Foundations of Capital Markets
Do yourself a favor and learn the lay of the land early. Start watching Bloomberg and reading Financial Times now.
Spring Term I
- Fundamentals of Market Intelligence
Whitney D. Says:Learn how to turn data into information and make educated marketing decisions.
- Principles of Cost and Managerial Accounting
Scott G. Says:This class will draw upon a lot of what you learn in other classes. Plus, you'll learn how an internal accounting decision can reinforce bad employee behavior.
- Spreadsheet Modeling and Decision Analysis
If you believe Professor Dan Ariely, you probably make irrational decisions sometimes. This class will give you some great tools to add some quantitative logic to your decision-making process.
Spring Term II
- Foundations of Management and Organizations
You can be the brightest person in the room, but if you don't know how to operate in a team, influence others, and navigate an organization, you simply won't be successful in business.
- Fundamentals of Financial Analysis
This is an excellent capstone course! It draws on what you've learned in previous classes. Keep watching Bloomberg and reading Financial Times!
- Introduction to Operations and Supply Chain Management
Hands-on learning just got more interesting. You'll learn what the bullwhip effect is by distributing beer.

American Jewry's Gift to Israel: Bibi, Bennett and Marzel
If Rabbi Eric Yoffie and his colleagues really want to save Israel from itself, the only way they can achieve this is by exhorting their congregants to make aliyah.
I don't know why some Jewish leaders and columnists are already complaining about how Israel and Israelis are alienating the Jewish Diaspora with their expected lurch to the right in Tuesday's elections. A quick look at the new Knesset should prove there have rarely if ever been so many parliamentarians with such a strong connection with our brothers from overseas.

All too often, local and state governments don't do enough to reach out to citizens on the web. I'm sure you have visited a local government website or one for a local municipality, state park, or even a local neighborhood website, and were not happy with the design or experience you had.
We are here to change that, by helping local governments build great websites – because we believe every local business should have an amazing website design.
Easy access to government online has gone from being nice-to-have to being necessary in the "open government" era, with many government websites taking advantage of modern designs and technologies to help engage with their local communities.

I am using javascript to generate HTML page from XML (generate table from XML file), well I have some kind of XML structure etc. I write HTML code as follows
document.write("" + name + "");
I get my variable as follows
name = x[i].getElementsByTagName("NAME")[0].childNodes[0].nodeValue;
So variable name contains whatever node NAME in my XML file structure contains simple XML to demonstrate:
<NAME>file 1.2.3</NAME>
The XML file is beeing edited by user, so user may insert whatever he/she wants, so if user inputs:
All editing is done with "my" front-end, and thru php function htmlspecialchars(); so actually what user would save into NAME node is "encoded" HTML
even all that it is not enough, when XML is saved with encoded HTML tags, javascript prints them as normal tags.
In other words: How can I write on page using JS (document.write) following text:
<?php $=1; ?> or
<htmltag>whatever is here </htmltag> without corrupting my real HTML.
Any solution?
example, this does not work as I would expect:
document.write("");
Found this function on web
function htmlspecialchars(str) {
if (typeof(str) == "string") {
str = str.replace(/&/g, "&"); /* must do & first */
str = str.replace(/"/g, """);
str = str.replace(/'/g, "'");
str = str.replace(/</g, "<");
str = str.replace(/>/g, ">");
return str;
It does the job done, but I do not really understand why.
In XML file it is already "encoded" or in form that should be safe to render (send to document.write function). I simply do "htmlspecialchars" again and it works pretty well.
document.write("" + htmlspecialchars(name) + "");
